Issachar Ministries derives its name from the tribe of Issachar who “understood the times and knew what Israel should do” (1 Chronicles 12.32).

This ministry seeks to bring Biblical teaching on current issues in the life of the nation (and internationally) by understanding the times, listening to the Lord and knowing what should be done.

It is particularly appropriate at this time to see the life of our nation in a contemporary context which complements our vision and purpose.

The five main areas of current Ministry are:

State of the Nation
Observations and comments on the ever changing scene of the nation and its spiritual heritage plus Bi-monthly Update Messages are produced and circulated looking at topical issues from a Biblical perspective.

Discerning the Purposes of God
Issachar Ministries actively promotes and participates in consultations with other ministries and local prayer groups in examining social trends and world events in relationship to the Scriptures. The objective is to understand the times and then to inform, equip and mobilise Prayer Partners, and networks of prayer groups to stand in the days ahead.

Parliamentary Work
Issachar Ministries has convened the Parliamentary Group on Family and Child Protection for many years. This provides research, outcomes and empirical data on family related issues to Members of Parliament.

Biblical and Hebraic Studies
This longstanding interest is now mainly through monthly meetings with speakers exploring new insights in the study of the Gospels and the Christian faith from a Hebraic perspective with resources.

Books and Resources Provision
C and M Ministries authors, publishes and distributes a large collection of books, CDs and DVDs which are available both to the general public and to Prayer Partners. It is starting to move into the sphere of electronic publishing.

Overview of the Ministry structure and activities.

C&M Ministries is the official name of the charity. Since its formation in the 1980s the Ministry has been supported by its Prayer Partners.
